Back Bundesliga: Bayern Munich secure third consecutive title

Bayern Munich won their third consecutive Bundesliga title thanks to Wolfsburg's 1-0 loss to Borussia Monchengladbach on Sunday. Bayer had done their bit by beating Hertha Berlin 1-0 on Saturday. This is the 25 top-flight title for Bayern Munich and the 24th since the Bundesliga started under this name in 1963.

Pep Guardiola's men are eyeing a treble this season as they are in the Champions League and German Cup semi-finals. The first test in those two competitions is on Tuesday when they face rivals Borussia Dortmund in the German Cup. They have already achieved the domestic double in the last two seasons and completed a treble two years ago.

Spanish coach Guardiola has won five league titles in his six years as a manager: three with Barcelona and now two with Bayern. His past and present will clash in the Champions League semi-finals in May as Bayern will face Barca. Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said: "Retaining the title is a magnificent achievement. All credit to the coach and the team. They've been fantastic throughout, in a season following a World Cup where we had a host of players in action. We'll have a magnificent party at some stage, no worries. But all in good time. When we do, it'll be a huge celebration."

Bayern are 5/2 at Bet365 to win the Champions League this season.
